《Ancient Wife [ DANMEI MTL ]》45/ Picking Up Another Child!

When Liang Han left, Zhang Qingzhu chewed on the dates and thought about whether to take the money or not.
He feel that Liang Han is really sincere, but how should he convince the seventh brother?
"If it's Wuguan, we should be able to pay it back. If we can afford it, Seventh Brother should agree to let me borrow money, right? Well... Maybe. I don't know if he will be angry."
After thinking about it, " It doesn't matter if you are angry. Seventh brother won't hit me anyway. If only he could agree, if Seventh brother can help with ideas, the money will definitely be kept."
"What should I say?" Zhang Qingzhu turned thinking of ideas in his head, he really has no confidence in dealing with his seventh brother.
He think it's just a matter of God's will.
He hope his brother can soften up.
Liang Han put his things and went into the room.
Seeing Zhang Qingzhu posing as he was biting red dates but not eating, he asked curiously, "So what are you thinking about?"
"I was thinking, how can I tell the seventh brother before he agrees to me? Borrow money from you. I just returned the money to you, and I borrow it again. He must not be happy."
Zhang Qingzhu looked at Liang Han and asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Liang Han thought about it and said, "Actually, you can find Discuss with your eldest brother."
The eldest son in the family has a somewhat unusual status, and he speaks with great weight, "If you want to keep the money honestly, as long as you convince your eldest brother, you should be able to do it. Moreover, this is only five stances, not much. , your family can still afford it. Don't be afraid of anything."
"Big brother?" Although his elder brother was kind to him, after all, he was a dozen years younger, and he was already married and had children, so he was somewhat distant, "I am even with the seventh brother. You don't know how stubborn they are."
"That's not necessarily true." Liang Han felt that the eldest Zhang family had already married after all, and now he has a chance to marry his younger brother.
In front of him, he couldn't refuse his brother's kindness like "standing and talking without back pain".
Even if he doesn't agree in his heart, he will help Zhang Qingzhu to persuade the Zhang family and his wife, "You try it, maybe it will work."
Zhang Qingzhu looked at him, why did he feel that the idea was a bit unreliable.
"I'd better tell my seventh brother first. Well, if you can't, go to Big Brother."
In his heart, Big Brother is very dignified.
QA little scared.
"That's fine. If you can't figure it out, put it on your own, and take it out at the critical moment. It's not a lot of money anyway, so you can't spend it if you want to."
Zhang Qingzhu laughed at him, "You said that in such a big way. It's five coins, and it's not five coins."
Liang Han thought about it too, when he came to this world, the original owner only saved more than 100 coins, that poor man.
However, he felt that he was really confident.
Even if there was no planting system, he didn't think he would really be poor forever.
"I can't say that I am loud, I should say that I am very generous to you." Liang Han did not feel that he was greasy and took the opportunity to say good things.

Zhang Qingzhu felt a little warm in his ears, "Why do you always talk nonsense lately!"
Seeing that he seemed a little shy, Liang Han smiled and said, "I'm telling the truth."
"Anyway, I don't like to listen, so don't say that in the future. "
"What you don't like to hear, you have to say it clearly, so that he know what not to say."
"You know it very well in your heart."
"It's just that you don't understand it so you can make it clear."
The atmosphere between the two was very subtle.
At that time, on the river more than 300 meters north of the village, many children were playing in full swing.
Xiao Shi and another child about his age were sitting on the "sled", and the other children pushed the sled out with force.
When the sled slipped out, the child sitting on it groaned happily.
Mai Zi wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Xiao Shi, Dingding, you come down, it's time for us to play."
Xiao Shi got down from the sleigh and pulled the sled back, "Sit down, sit down. "
.
Wheat sits on the sled. It is said to be an ice sled, but it is actually just a few wooden boards.
It also carefully installed a push handle, which can be pushed from the back, and also got a rope in the front.
"You are weak, use the rope." Then he pointed to the distance, "Pull over there, to that branch.
Shi didn't mind waiting for them to sit down and pull the ice sled with the other kids.
This kind of game made them sweat, and they didn't feel cold at all.
When they pulled the sled to the place and were about to sit on the sled to enjoy themselves, a child on the bank suddenly shouted at them.
"Xiao Pei, Maizi, come here. There is an unknown child here. It 's over."
Xiao Pei was older, and when he heard that there was a strange child, he hurriedly got up from the sleigh.
"What child?"
He wondered if it was from another village, but he felt that it was wrong.
The children who have families fell into their villages.
The children hurrahed and ran from the river to see the strangeness.
The small stone also followed curiously.
When Zhu Yucheng woke up, he found that he was surrounded by a circle of children.
After seeing the clothes of these children, he was relieved.
Maizi whispered to Xiaopei, "Look, he's awake, go and ask him what's going on."
Xiaopei, the oldest of the group, naturally asked him, "What's your name? Why are you dizzy? Are you down here?"
This is the grove of their village, which is now bare in winter, and few people come here.
The child just now discovered Zhu Yucheng because he ran over to pick up a bigger branch.
Xiao Shishi looked at Zhu Yucheng curiously, he looked taller than himself, his face was dirty, and his clothes were still scratched.
But looking at the material is much better than the clothes they wear.
Regarding Xiaopei's question, Zhu Yucheng didn't plan to answer any more, but asked in a weak voice, "I've been separated from my family, who can take me in for a few days?"
As soon as he said this, the children were silent for a while, then looked at each other left and right.
It's okay to have a meal, but if you stay at their house for a few days, the family will definitely not be happy.

None of these children dared to agree privately.
Seeing that Zhu Yucheng looked weak, Maizi touched the small stone next to him with his elbow.
"Why don't you take him to your house first."
He knew that the small stone was taken in by Liang Han, in his opinion,
If you can keep one, what is more.
What's more, it's only for a few days.
How dare Xiaoshito say yes, he still borrows from Uncle Liang's house. Xiaopei directly helped Xiaoshi.
"Then let him get into your house first. No matter what he does, if you encounter Paihuazi, you will be in trouble."
This is outside the village, a little distance from the village.
This kid doesn't even have the strength to run.
The children in the village have heard the words of their family members and know that Liang Han is fierce and not a good person to get along with.
He want to send the child to his house, he don't know if he wants it or not.
But these children didn't say anything, because Liang Han asked for a small stone, so he might take this child in.
Xiao Shi hesitated and agreed. In his opinion, Uncle Liang is a very good person.
If this child wants to stay there for a few days, there should be no problem...
In this way, the other children continued to play, and decided to let Maizi and Xiaopei help Zhu Yucheng to Liang Han's house together, and Xiao Shishi naturally followed.
All this Zhu Yucheng listened quietly and didn't say anything more.
When Liang Han was joking with Zhang Qingzhu, he saw Xiao Shishi running in.
He asked curiously, "Why did you come back so early today?" If he went out to play before, he didn't come back until dinner time.
Little Shi said hesitantly. "I...we...we picked up a child."
Zhang Qingzhu was surprised after hearing this. "You picked up a child?"
How could a child be so easy to pick up?
He looked at Liang Han, and it seemed that this one picked up one, but he didn't expect another one to come.
Liang Han was also surprised, when did the child become so worthless. Curiously asked.
"What's the matter?"
"A child fell into the woods. He said that he was separated from his family and wanted someone to take him in for a few days."
Seeing him, Liang Han said to himself that it must have something to do with him.
"Then... I'll take this child in?"
"Okay. Burn more, I'll kill the chicken later, just to use it to shed the hair." Liang Han brought the two children into the house, looked at the children sitting upright, and asked.
"What's your name?"
"That's right, don't be resolute and be a good person before you change your mind." Liang Han picked up the chicken, picked up the knife, and was empty-handed.
He said to Zhang Qingzhu, "Help me get a bowl to collect the blood of the chicken, and I will kill the chicken." Zhang Qingzhu took the bowl and followed him out.
"Is it really killed?" "Of course, how can I eat without killing it?"
"My family only has I only kill a chicken during Chinese New Year and festivals. I have to give half of it to my grandma's family." Zhang Qingzhu went over to put the bowl away, "You are quite comfortable living alone."
Liang Han laughed. "You still want to say that I am extravagant, right?"
Zhang Qingzhu didn't bother him, and asked with a smile, " Don't you think so?"
Zhang Qingzhu saw that his movements were unfamiliar, and he thought that the child might not be able to wash by himself.
After taking a towel and soaking it in water, "Come on, let me wipe it for you."
Zhu Yucheng did not refuse.
After Zhang Qingzhu wiped the child's face and hands, he looked at the child showing his true face.
With red lips and white teeth, he secretly said in his heart.
"This child is so good-looking!"
After they washed them, Zhang Qingzhu brought them some snacks. "Go to bed, there is still time for the meal to be ready."
Xiao Shishi added. "Uncle Liang's cooking is delicious. If you're full, you won't be able to eat anymore."
Zhu Yucheng put down the snacks in his hand after hearing this.
He also wanted to eat some hot food. in the kitchen.
Xiao Shishi said a little nervously.
"Maizi and the others said that. Their family can make the child eat, and they will definitely not take him in for a few days, and they will not be able to live."
Liang Han thought about it.
Thinking, it doesn't matter if it's just taken in for a few days.
"Okay, where is the child now?"
Hearing Liang Han's agreement, Xiao Shishi immediately felt relieved, he smiled and said.
"It's just outside the gate. That... Maizi and the others are unwilling to come in."
Liang Han was embarrassed after hearing this, since he is not a devil's cave, why would a child not want to come in.
"I'll let that kid in."
After saying that, Xiao Shishi happily ran out.
Seeing this, Liang Han looked at Zhang Qingzhu.
"Let's go, let's go and have a look."
After Xiao Shishi ran out, he happily said to Zhu Yucheng, "Uncle Liang has promised to take you in."
Hearing this news made Zhu Yucheng a lot relieved.
Maizi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and seeing that things were done, they would have nothing to do with them.
He said to Xiao Shishi, "Then let's go first."
After that, they left with Xiao Pei.
They didn't want to stay here with Liang Han.
What if he accidentally annoy Liang Han.
Zhu Yucheng recovered a lot of strength and saw the two adults come out.
Along the way, he could see that the village was very poor, and the family did not look rich either.
But he think this is not bad, he should be able to hide.
Liang Han looked up and down the child and determined that the child's family should be good.
After the conclusion was that he didn't have to adopt another child, he smiled and said to Zhu Yucheng, "Let's go to the house."
Zhang Qingzhu saw that the child and the Xiao Shi were dirty, so he said to Liang Han, "I'll boil some water for them to wash."
"My name is Zhu Xiaobao."
"Oh." Liang Han sat down and continued to ask, "I heard from Xiao Shishi that you are separated from your family. Where is your home? Do you want me to go to the yamen to help you out?"
Zhu Yucheng hurriedly refused. "No need."
He pursed his lips, looked at Liang Han and said, "Please take me in for a few days, and I will be grateful when my father finds me."
Liang Han looked at the child, six or seven years old, but he looked very mature.
It should not be a child raised by an ordinary family.
As an ordinary child, separated from his family, how can he be so calm.
He hesitated, afraid of trouble.
But then he think about it, it's just a child, what trouble can there be. What's more, he looked at the child with his hands clenched, in fact, the child was still nervous.
He smiled and said. "Okay, then you can live here with peace of mind. But my family is average, so don't feel wronged."
Zhu Yucheng knew that he had no conditions to pay attention to anything at this time.
"No problem."
Liang Han picked Raising eyebrows, the feeling of a child pretending to be an adult is actually quite cute.
He said to Xiao Shitou, "I'll kill the chicken, and we'll have meat for lunch. You can stay with Xiaobao here."
Liang Han felt that the two children should have more common language, so he left the house, and it was time to prepare for lunch now.
When he came to the kitchen, Zhang Qingzhu was on fire. When he saw Liang Han come in, he smiled and said, "That's right, we have another child."
Liang Han smiled and said, "What can I do. In the cold winter and twelfth lunar month, where should I send him."
"You are quite caring now. Well." Zhang Qingzhu felt that Liang Hanxing had really changed.
How could such a person be willing to raise other people's children for nothing.
Liang Han disagreed. "Just eating a few more meals of meat is nothing. You don't know how those rich people live, I don't know that at all. What ."
"You said that you are rich, how can we compare." Looking at the chicken, Zhang Qingzhu asked, "You live like this, aren't you afraid of being envied?"
"Even if they are jealous and jealous . What can I do?"
With the reputation of the original owner, few dared to find fault.
"Okay, anyway, you don't care about being told by others."
Zhang Qingzhu was going to go back to make a fire, but killing chickens is nothing to see.
After the water was boiled, Zhang Qingzhu got a basin of warm water and took it out, and said to Liang Han who was cleaning up the chicken.
"The hot water is ready, I'll let them wash it first."
"Okay." Liang Han carried the chicken into the kitchen .
When Zhang Qingzhu entered the house, Xiao Shishi breathed a sigh of relief, the new kid didn't like to talk to him at all.
It was so boring to be with him.
Zhang Qingzhu put the water away, smiled at them and said, "Two little dirty cats, come over and wash your hands."
Zhu Yucheng stood up and looked at the water basin, then looked at the child beside him and put his dirty hands into the water.
He looked at his hands again, but it wasn't that clean.
Enduring the discomfort in his heart, he also followed.
Zhang Qingzhu helped the two children.
After making arrangements, give them the snacks, which he is too embarrassed to eat.
It feels like it should be eaten for children.
"You guys play, I'll help Liang... Liang Han."
Back in the kitchen, Zhang Qingzhu smiled and said to Liang Han, "That child is really good-looking. He must not be the head of the village. "
Liang Han didn't pay much attention to it.
"Well, I can see it like that. Don't care where he came from, he only stayed for a few days anyway."
Zhang Qingzhu tried to ask. "What if his family didn't find him? Have you kept him all the time?"
"Probably not, the kid said it for sure. Besides, he is so old, he must remember where he lives. If no one is looking for him, I will send him home."
A child with a family, why does he support the family for a lifetime?
Zhu Yucheng looked at the dim sum, which was not delicate at all, and saw the child next to him eating happily.
He was also very hungry and picked up a piece of pastry and took a bite.
The sweet and greasy taste made him feel very fragrant when he was hungry.
Eating ordinary dim sum that he would never see, Zhu Yucheng thought to himself.
"Xiaogui is right. When people are hungry, ordinary food will feel delicious."
Zhu Yucheng, who was in the room, hesitated and said, "Xiaobao, don't eat it."
"Huh?" Zhu Yucheng asked with his eyes, is this child reluctant to let me eat it?
Xiao Shitou explained to him.
"Uncle Liang said to eat meat at noon. If you are full, you will not be able to eat meat."
Two stoves are burned together, one pot burns porridge and steamed buns, and one stove stews meat.
When the aroma filled people's mouth, Liang Han took a piece of chicken and gave it to Zhang Qingzhu.
"Have you tried the meat stewed noodles?"
Zhang Qingzhu took a sip and said, "It's delicious. Enough noodles."
Now, Liang Han reduced the fire at the bottom of the stove.
Then wash the small iron pan and put it on the tripod.
He moved the fire from the bottom of the stove to the tripod, then transferred the chicken stock from the pot to the small iron pot.
After finishing it, he asked Zhang Qingzhu, "Do you want to drink egg drop soup?"
Zhang Qingzhu didn't like to eat.
"Okay. Has the fire stopped here?"
"Move the fire at the bottom of the stove too."
He took a small basin, beat two eggs, and after stirring, poured the hot chicken soup, "This is it. It's delicious and simple."
He divided the soup into four portions, each of which was only half a bowl.
Drink something to warm your stomach, if it's too much, you won't be able to eat anything else. Then he shouted outside.
"Little Shi, the rice is ready. Come and eat."
After Liang Han put the stools down, the two children came over.
Zhang Qingzhu brought a bowl to them. "Come, drink some egg drop soup to warm up your body first."
Liang Han added some water to the pot, and then put the hard-to-cook mushroom tofu into the pot to cook first.
He took a steamed bun by himself and asked the two little ones, "Do you two eat steamed buns?"
Xiao Shishi raised his head and said, "I'll eat half of it first."
Zhu Yucheng thought that the egg drop soup was delicious, as for the steamed buns.

How will his future unfold? ------------------------- My native language is neither English nor Chinese, I am writing a Xianxia novel because I like the genre. I have tried to maintain the chinese names and the form of address but I used the measurements of the international system(meters, grams, etc..) and the hour time(no incense stick, or others). It may spoil it for some but I think it would be easier both for me and the readers. Before you read keep in mind that this is a novel with a slow progress. I don't want to give any spoiler but at least a few chapters will be dedicated to his life in the village.
